Recipes By Type:
Peppered Shrimp with Green Asparagus
Serves 4
Preparation Time: 25 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound green asparagus
  • 2 pounds uncooked/thawed giant shrimp
  • 1 ounce butter
  • 2 ounces Bertolli® Olive Oil
  • Salt
  • 1 package Boursin® Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons crème fraîche
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions:
Remove the woody ends of the asparagus, then wash and cut into sections at an angle. Shell the shrimp, leaving the tail ends intact. Cut a slit along the back and remove the dark veins. Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large saucepan and gently fry the shrimp and asparagus sections for 5 minutes with a little salt. Add the Boursin Pepper and the crème fraîche. As soon as the sauce starts to boil, add the lemon juice and serve immediately.

Tip:
Instead of shrimp, you can use a thinly sliced chicken breast. You can also replace the asparagus with French beans blanched for 2 minutes in boiling, salted water.
